A 32 kb/s toll quality ADPCM codec using a single chip signal processor

An ADPCM codec, that can provide toll quality speech at a 32 kb/s transmission rate, has been implemented on a single chip signal processor. Maximum effort has been paid to design a robust adaptation scheme for a quantizer and a predictor to withstand transmission bit errors. The codec employs a simplified robust quantizer and also employs a new backward adaptive predictor. The decoder, including the new adaptive predictor, has a structure having fixed poles and adaptive zeros, attaining both high prediction capability and robustness. The performance of a developed codec, which has analog interface capability through a PCM codec chip, satisfies the standard 64 kb/s PCM performance specification in CCITT recommendation G.712.
